I had the same situation as well. My parents got 1 yr visa the last 2 times they went to consulate. Now she did not ask any questions and rejected...under 214b. 214b means lack of ties in home country..however i dont understand how will they get to know what the applicant has in home country unless they see any of the docs they presented to the VO.

Hi!

214b is they see the applicant as a potential immigrant . You would have to show strong ties to India the next time you apply.

how show tie in india unless they ask

hi,
but how do we show them the tie i mean is it the sponsor have to mention it in his letter,becos my mother was having all the doc like the property papers,bank statements and all but they didn't ask her so how could she prove the tie unless they ask for the doc,pls tell me so that next time when i apply i may know how proceed

In ur letter to consulate, mention as bullet points the reasons why she will go back. Mention everything u can think about..Hopefully the officer will read the letter. Ur mom can request the officer to read the letter before the interview. rest is luck.

Every time the application is evaluated independently. You must prove the stong ties to home country to CO.

[dahlia]

if the visa appt is for ur mom only, then nobody can accompany her during interview. So better take local lang. appt only.

visa appt

no apart from my mother i am taking an appt for my sister who know to speak english so is it ok if my mother doesn't know english

[dahlia]

Its not ok. If the officer asks something ur mom, then its a problem. She will be asked to come back again with local lang. appt.

Those who takes regional language appointment, their interpreter will be an Consulate official. No one is allowed to accompany any applicants to do translation.

Before you take the appointment you must know this.
